Rated 5/5
Review by mrdude Apr 17, 2008
When I first heard this in 1990, I walked into a local record shop, and some very cool music was playing. I asked what it was, and the shop assistant told me it was Lush, and handed me the CD. Ever since then, it has been one of my favorite albums in my entire collection. More interestingly, if you have heard the album Goodbye from Ulrich Schnauss, there are lots of similarities in the 'sound' between the two!
